創世記 2:23

婚姻是從「我」到「我們」的發展與連結過程。正因這是一段漫長的關係旅程以及共同生活的經歷，尤其是在轉折處，例如生小孩、青少年、空巢期、健康、工作改變等等階段，最會考驗到彼此的關係。這個過程也最能迫使基督徒夫妻思考關於神如何守約愛人，及主耶穌如何付出捨己的愛的教導。 要明白為什麼要守住婚姻的盟約，我們不僅需要聖經的知識，還需要更新我們的心。如大衛在詩篇23:3所說「祂使我的靈魂甦醒。」若沒有神，我們的愛就會被有限的看法及感受所限制，我們實在需要閱讀神的話語、反思及禱告，才有能力在屬靈方面有長進。這五天的靈修計畫將幫助你從聖經的角度來思考婚姻的盟約關係。

Marriage is a challenging and rewarding relationship, and so often we forget that “I do” is only the beginning. Fortunately, the Bible has much to say about marriage from both the husband’s and wife’s perspectives. The brief Scripture passages you’ll encounter each day of this plan are designed to help you grow in your understanding of God’s design for marriage—and deepen your relationship with your spouse in the process.

Dating and marriage are probably the most talked about topics among young people and even adults. It makes sense, since choosing a spouse is the second most important decision you will ever make in your life, after your decision to follow Christ. In this reading plan, you will discover how to go about dating God’s way and learn some key principles on successful relationships.
